MC Prekarius

I went to see MC Prekarius the other night; he’s “the world’s first fully XHTML 1.1 compliant rapper”. It turns out I didn’t actually “see” him; he hid behind a screen emblazoned with the W3C logo, on the pretext of separating content from presentation.

DJ Furbolect spun tunes onstage, in full view. He said he was “specifying layout”, but this mostly seemed to consist of him randomly screaming obscenity-laced CSS into a microphone.
